J-20 200X But if might turn out to be a Psed since we seen the grey J-20 also appearing.
Why is the insignia so clear on this image?
because the image resolution is less compressed on the vertical stabilizer, hence the smaller pixel squares there
very interesting, looks like some changes to accommodate ws-15? the red outline of the engine nozzle in the second picture looks wider in diameter and shaped differently too.
this feels pretty legit because something like this simply doesn't seem like the type of thing that fanboys would spend time fabricating or postulating... it's not sexy enough.
Black is new. Red is,original.
Many thanks for the explaination

Interesting speculation, even kool drawings, but why???? the Air Force Brat is a big skeptic here, NYET. Not to can anybody's fun, but seriously, I like the drawings, but not sure I see any advantage aerodynamically??? so I know folks like to speculate and I probably do more than my share, but I'm not picking up any vibe here as to why???? brat
These adjustments would primarily be for stealth if they happen.
yes it appears that would be the case when we match the tail section line drawing comparisons with ladioussupp's image comparing the supposedly modified j-20 to the original.
another thing to note is that not only are the engines more retracted in this purported modification, the wings are also shifted forward in a substantial way. apart from an impact on stealth, perhaps this also balances the plane better in terms of its center of gravity? (the original j-20 has always looked a bit tail heavy to me)
i still have my money on these drawings being credible just because i can't imagine fanboys or civilian speculators making producing such pictures. they are not sensationalistic enough.
